The revelation would not be televised. He was grateful for that, at least. The moment he realized how #wrong he had been about people, those who he thought he knew, who he trusted, who he held in high esteem. It was devastating, but at least it was private. The blinders had fallen.

Holy shit - 2010 was *FOURTEEN FUCKING YEARS* ago?!?"

Hot fruit pie. Yum.😋
Char @Charmed_Im_SureFamily birthdays today! Mom, dad, and my niece (the latter share a bday). I'm making apple pie because it is dad's fav. It's a healthier version given his heart surgery a couple years ago, but it's still delicious!01:30 PM - Apr 07, 2024
Mmmm, pie 🥧

You can't be the best at everything, I guess.
Still, can't say I'm not a bit disappointed.

Ok you asked for it.
When I was in the Navy, I went to Thailand twice. The first time to Phuket. The second time to Pattaya. Prostitution was rampant. I was simultaneously having the time of my life, while also hating my life. If you haven't served, you wouldn't understand.

I have also been struck by the number of folks who will like all of the posts on both sides of any fight without realizing that the people are all talking about each other. Anyone can have a drama free timeline!

-People who curate their TLs so that they "don't see all the drama,"
-Who are also inordinately curious about "all the drama,"
-Who have also blocked or muted folks who are "negative all the time,"
-In order to escape "the drama,"
-Whilst busily...

Goose @GooseWell, the joke is on my family members, because they taught me to suppress genuine emotion well enough that I also mostly don’t feel sad about losing them.10:40 PM - Apr 04, 2024

If you’re not seeing the bad behavior on your timeline, that’s great! But rather than speculating loudly about what it might be, consider asking for more info, or just sitting the conversation out. All the speculation has done so far is to make things more uncomfortable without solving the problem.

I’ve seen folks lamenting the “drama” here recently. And while I totally get that some folks may be conflict-averse, framing the problem as “drama” puts the blame equally on folks instigating harassment and abuse and on people pushing back. If the harassment would stop, there would be no drama.

Lake Lanier enjoys villains?
Lake Lanier @LakeLanierI've never heard of Tee Villain but I'm intrigued. I do enjoy villains. The name would suggest their enemy is tees? What sort of tees? Tee shirts? Golf tees? The letter T?01:34 PM - Apr 05, 2024

No.
Those who are complaining are miserable, jealous assholes.
This is an innocent, harmless display(not even a "prank") of affection towards someone who has been a source of support, comfort, & positivity towards everyone, & anyone "offended" can just block and scroll on.
Isn't that the line?

if you wonder why i make a big deal about ableism here’s a good example
this isn’t unusual. this is normal. this is the result of generations of disabled people being used as punchlines or being shoved out of view
and i can guarantee stuff like this is happening in your kids/grandkids schools

A reminder: tone policing is when someone ignores your main argument to complain about peripheral stuff like the emotion with which you expressed your point. When someone points out that your core content was racist, ableist, misogynist, transphobia, or otherwise harmful., that’s not tone policing.
